Review: The Invention of Lefse

The Invention Of Lefse: A Christmas Story by Larry Woiwode
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Size doesn't matter, but content and being able to understand what is going on in a book DOES. I so wanted to like this easy to read cute book. The cover is gorgeous! I was looking for a story to maybe start a family tradition. What I got, I still am wondering.

For much of the story I couldn't understand at all what was going on but a bunch of complaining and nonsense. I got it on the last few pages. Disjointed and jumbled too much for this reader's tastes.

I wanted to like Mette but I just didn't feel any kind of connection. The whole book seemed rushed.

Intentions good but I felt it fell a bit short.
